Models of Attachment On the Web - 09/06/15
Résumé |
Background |
Adolescents with a problematic use of the Web reported less satisfaction also in interpersonal relationships and poorer onces with their parents (Liu & Kou, 2007). Other studies have shown that attachment plays a role in the way in which the person interacts with others in the network (Buote et.al. 2009).
Aim of the Study |
This study was focused on the psychological profile of a sample of young Facebook users and on the relationships between the time spent on the Web, symptoms detected by the SLC-90, the state of attachment (Ca-Mir), and the self perception of attachment to parents and friends.
Methods |
500 adolescents (F = 221, M = 214), aged between 13 and 18 years, were assessed by means of self rating questionnaires (BFAS Over-Bergen Facebook Addiction Scale, SPQ – Shorter Promis Questionnaire, MPIQ – Mobile Phone Involvement Questionnaire, UCLA – Loniless Scale, Self-Disclosure Online, IPPA – Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment, SCL-90 – Syntom Check List, Ca-mir). On two subjects was performed EEG recording, during exposure to stimuli related to Facebook and to the Web.
Results |
A subgroup of young people were spending more time on the Web and were also reporting situations of mental and emotional vulnerability asociated with dysfunction in family relationships.
Conclusions |
These results emerge from profiles of normality and risk, even multiples, which relate the quality of parent-child attachment relationship and the proper use of social networks and the Internet in general. Further investigations are needed to fully understand the brain dynamics behind these profiles.
